This pull request is an automated backport to the 3.15 branch, primarily focused on updating the Cassandra driver dependency. It upgrades the driver version to 3.12.1 and transitions the dependency from the com.datastax.cassandra group to org.apache.cassandra. These changes are foundational for enabling and supporting integration tests with Cassandra versions 4 and 5, ensuring compatibility and stability with newer Cassandra environments.

• Dependency Group ID Change: The Cassandra driver dependency in core/build.gradle has been switched from com.datastax.cassandra to org.apache.cassandra, indicating a shift to the Apache-maintained driver.
• Enabling Cassandra 4 and 5 Tests: These dependency updates are crucial for adding and supporting integration tests for Cassandra versions 4 and 5, as stated in the original PR title.

Code Review

This pull request is an automated backport that updates the Cassandra driver dependency. The cassandraDriverVersion is updated from 3.11.5 to 3.12.1 in build.gradle, and the corresponding group ID is changed from com.datastax.cassandra to org.apache.cassandra in core/build.gradle. This group ID change is correct and necessary as the driver has been moved to the Apache Software Foundation. The changes are correct and improve maintainability by keeping dependencies up-to-date. I have reviewed the changes and found no issues.
